MSI-MH Series Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensor with CAN Output

Rod-type, high-precision, absolute, non-contact, magnetostrictive sensor with an operating range of 25 to 3800 mm. Position measurements are performed using ring-shaped position magnets that move along the waveguide without physical contact.

The sensor flange is made of high-quality stainless steel and designed for long service life.
